    GB 0046 D/ECb Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 13977 The National Archives HERTFORDSHIRE RECORD OFFICE D/ECb Deeds of the Koddesdon Brewery and a number of licensed houses owned or leased by the brevors. Deposited by Messrs. Boulton Sons and Sandeman for the Cannon Brewery. Inventory compiled: LAccession 162] March 1968 D/ECb Introduction This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the vhole of the Hoddesdon Brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and titl e deeds of some of those houses and of others that were acquired later. The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date til l his death in 1803, rfhittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery*s commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surrounding district. Messrs. John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Vhittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs. Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. After Peter Christie's death and when 3ack and Hunt had retired to their country estates, the firm was conveyed in 1866 to Charles Peter Christie. On his death in 1898 it was turned into a public company which 30 years later was absorbed by the Cannon Brewery of London, later controlled by Taylor, Valker and Co. and now by the Ind Coope combine.

It has an area of around 20 square miles and a population of 95,700 (source: Office for National Statistics mid-2014 population estimate). The largest towns are Cheshunt, Waltham Cross and Hoddesdon. Those aged 60-74 make up approximately 14.1% of the Broxbourne population. Over the next 10 years, due to ageing population trends and longer life expectancy, the proportion of residents aged 75 and over is likely to increase significantly from its current level of 8.3%. This will pose new challenges for health and other services. Broxbourne Borough Council has an approximate headcount of 580 staff with offices in Cheshunt, One Stop Shops in Cheshunt, Hoddesdon and Waltham Cross and Leisure Centres in Cheshunt and Hoddesdon. The Council aims to provide high quality services to its customers. The most recent independent survey showed a 79% satisfaction rating, one of the highest in the country. Although we continue to face financial challenges, our objective is to maintain this high level of customer satisfaction.
